Fruit Salid 3

Mark Drobitko placed 22nd in the 2021 Rolex Sydney Hobart and contested events up north this year. He bought Fruit Salid in the UK in 2016 and sailed it to Australia, arriving in late 2017. Passage highlights included first place in the 2016 ARC+ Atlantic Crossing, Caribbean Sea cruising, Grenada Race Week, Panama Canal transit, Pacific Ocean and her owner enjoying life at sea. The Beneteau 40’s crew are working towards the boat’s third Sydney Hobart campaign. Drobitko intended to name his boat ‘Fruit Salad’, but a few drinks later and with the paint brush out, the spelling changed… The Fruit Salid crew warmed up for the Hobart in Easter’s Brisbane to Gladstone Yacht Race.
